"DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE, PERIOD. ONCE COMMUNICATED ON SOCIAL MEDIA, SEVERAL OTHER FRIENDS ALSO SAID THEY BEEN TO THIS CO"

1.0

When you look for Pet Friendly breaks then it should really be PET FRIENDLY! When our dog was attacked by the free roaming Zebra, and I reported it to the hostess, she replied that she did me a favour for allowing pets! This after advertising facility as pet friendly and confirming it in messaging as well.

Arriving at a cottage which hasn’t been serviced for some time! Dirty, musky smells from being closed for days since previous occupants left, had my wife in allergic reactions as she had to keep our dogs safe inside away from the Zombie killer Zebra, whilst I had to drive several kilometers for signal to contact owners and asked what the hell is going on?! Only to be told that they were out of town and had personal family crisis and wasn’t able to attend to cottage management in person and that there was as miscommunication?! This for a booking made four days prior to our arrival? I have sympathy for personal tragedies, but then if you cannot manage your property in your absence, make it unavailable! Do not have guests make arrangements, purchase luxuries for a stress-free weekend away, drive a considerable distance to your remote cottage only to have traumatic experience in first five minutes of arrival!

"Perfect for a Silent Retreat!"

10.0

Well furnished, accommodating hosts, great walking trails with wild animals. Starry skies were a treat and with the gas stove, fridge and shower I never missed the electricity. Wifi was adequate for messaging, streaming and video calls at most times. Perfect for a self-retreat.

"Good for a couple of days"

6.0

Very peaceful location. Nice to unwind. It is extremely quiet and lovely sitting on patio at night.

There is almost no Wi-Fi at all and no cell phone signal. The water can be very dirty for showering. You must take drinking water with. We had no working fridge for several days.
